best motivation goals? I find rewarding myself in small ways makes me stick to my goals in weight loss and other areas. Ideas beyond spa, nail, book -- I am looking for inexpensive ideas.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Maybe some new shoes, accessories, handbag, makeup or beauty product? I have a friend who has a ball jar she has decorated to look very cute. Every week she achieves her goals she adds $20 to the jar. She is saving the money for her clothing spree at the end of her journey. Good luck with the ideas!5

Kitchen gadgets: a spiral slicer, new knives, tupperware, etc. Headphones, kettlebell, iTunes, running socks, head bands for working out, new workout tops (or bottoms! Lol), silk pillow case, water bottle, race entry or fun new fitness activity (near me, we have zip lines, obstacle courses, a climbing wall... but they're more expensive than what I'd pay on a regular basis)1

A couple of inexpensive ideas on my list: new workout music, charm for my charm bracelet (Hallmark store cheapie , adult coloring book, magazine, give myself a facial, flowers. I like the idea of a money jar, I'm going to start that one myself!2

Love the money jar, that's a great idea.
I would find the following motivating: a new nail polish, a drink at the bar with DH and without the kid (he, he), a new magazine, a high quality cheese or chocolate (for a responsible, budgeted snack), flowers, stationery. I have a slight addiction to stationery.0 -
As if moving a step closer to your ultimate goal isn't reward enough?1

A new piece of workout gear/clothing is my favorite!1

I allow myself a few $$ for a trip to the thrift store!1

For me the reward needs to be something that I really want and I'm not allowed to have it until I earn it. If I don't care when I get it next...it doesn't help me stay motivated. So sometimes little things that I usually have are great things to remove from life so that I have to earn them.
For example an amazing book that I can only listen to while walking. Or a scrapbook book day where my husband has the kids.0
